Administrative Login

• You can log into the administrative console from the

graphics console (VGA display/USB keyboard) or serial console (Serial 1 at 115200, N81), by choosing an option from the GRUB menu.

• Remote log in via Secure SHell (SSH) is available.

• Username is root and password is IsiTech.

• Shut down the system before disconnecting power.

To shut down, use poweroff. The Power LED will turn off when the system has successfully shut down.

Feature Configuration

Your ReliaGATE runs the Denali routing application software which can configure the following networks:

• Ethernet via fixed IP address or DHCP (default)

• Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11) via fixed IP address or DHCP

• Cellular via the modem option installed

• GPS

To change the configuration, complete the following steps:

1. In the administrative console, type ifconfig eth0.

2. HTTPS is used for secure transfer of configuration data. On your PC, open a Web browser and enter https://ip_address where ip_adress is the inet address displayed in step 1.

3. Your browser may display a warning about the certificate. Select the option in your specific browser to continue past the security warning.

4. In the dialog box, enter the User Name eurotech and Password eurotech.

5. The Denali Setup Web page is displayed. In the appropriate tab, make any necessary configuration changes and submit the new configuration. Changes to the network settings take effect immediately. It is not necessary to reboot.

How Do I Connect to the Everyware Cloud?

ReliaGATE leverages ESF, plus the power of Denali, to provide a complete, cloud-ready development platform. To connect to the Everyware Cloud, you must

• Request an account by contacting your Eurotech

sales manager or email sales.us@eurotech.com

• Configure Denali on your ReliaGATE with your

account credentials (URL, username, and password).

What are the Hardware Features?

USB Host Ports

The four USB 2.0 ports are general-purpose USB host ports (500 mA max).

Gigabit Ethernet Ports

In Linux, the lower Ethernet port is assigned to eth0, while the upper port is assigned to eth1. Note that the upper Ethernet port is implemented by a high-speed USB 2.0 to 10/100/1000 Ethernet Controller.

Serial Ports

By default, Serial 1 and Serial 2 are 5-wire, EIA-232. These ports can be configured for EIA-485 mode by changing the settings in the BIOS Setup utility.

CAN

The pin assignment on the CAN connector is:

General-Purpose Inputs and Outputs

The 12-position terminal block provides analog inputs (A1-A2), isolated digital inputs (D1-D4), isolated digital outputs (DO1-DO2), and a sleep/wake input (IGN).
